omgiv Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Hi guys, I typically frequent the Rolex forums and don't believe I have posted much on the PAM forum. I love the style on PAM's and have owned several reps and a genuine 111. I came across the latest 111 recently and decided to take the plunge once again. The latest purchase was a noob 111N v3 from one of the TD's and I am in the process of starting some of the mods. I decided to start with the balance [censored], since that seems like the most obvious flaw with this particular movement. After installing the correct ETA incabloc setting, I filed the bottom of the swan neck regulator to match the shape of the genuine part, and also made an adjust screw. My question for the experts is about the screw. Do the proportions look close? I based them on comparative measurements taken from several different genuine pictures. I know that it isn't perfect. I still need to perfect my threading and also want to find a better way to slot the screw. I would also love to drill the two small holes in the head for adjusting (any ideas on that would be appreciated). Anyway, here is the picture and please feel free to add comments (good and bad). Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtanak Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Looks pretty good! Where did you get the screw? The head looks a tad too thick but i can't really be sure. What do you intend to do about the wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omgiv Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Thanks! I made the screw myself. Not easy to do and not sure I can get much better with my current set-up. The wheels have been brushed but I don't have the means to replace them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
